Description

Ā This hand-dyed artisanal yarn is no ordinary knitting yarn: the designer behind the knitting patterns Louise Robert Design meticulously created this beautiful collection.

It's by studying the color pallets that represent her life and career over the years that designer Louise Robert was able to imagine all of the variety available in these hand-dyed artisanal yarns.

VENUS is a character from Roman mythology. The goddess of love, beauty, and seduction, she is the most coveted of all the gods. A symbol of feminine beauty, Venus has inspired the work of many artists over the centuries, including my personal favorite: Botticelli's Birth of Venus.

Super Sock The Kiss

As usual the wool was exquisite. Beautiful drape and yet knits into cozy socks.

So disappointed in this product. Not nearly enough yarn to reach the advertised 16ā€ on the pattern. The photos on the pattern feature a shawl that must use at least twice as much yarn. This is more of a scarf than a shawl. Not worth the cost.

Rich, gorgeous colors!

Love this supersock from Louise Robert. It's soft, easy to work with, and the colors are rich and saturated.

Lovely Shawl

Just started this shawl, it is a great knit. I learned the garter tab cast on and the mosaic keeps it interesting!
